Former "America's Next Top Model" winner Adrianne Curry has decided to go public about her anger towards the show and Revlon. Curry was the winner of the first ever season of the hit reality television show. As the winner, she was guaranteed a modeling contract and a contract with popular make-up company Revlon.

Adrianne Curry decided to vent her frustrations on her popular Myspace blog, which I happen to be subscribed to. She went on a long rant in which she claimed that Revlon has yet to pay her. In her own words, she states that she "has yet to see a dime from Revlon", The only work that she did do with the company consisted of participating in a convention once the show ended.

Curry spoke about the false hopes that the show had given the models. "We were told the winner would be an instant millionaire, that our faces would be plastered everywhere in Revlon ads. None of which turned out to be true... I still haven't got paid for the work I did for them!" steamed Curry. You can defiantly feel her displeasure when reading her blog.

The Revlon campaign in which she was guaranteed to receive plenty of work turned out to be false. She has contacted Revlon several times in the past and has yet to receive a response. Revlon has not released a public statement yet as this news has just become public. The next few days will most likely see Revlon release a statement to help shed more light onto this situation.

Celebrities have been using the popular Myspace.com site to vent their displeasure on several topics. Adrianne Curry has used the site in the past to vent about her relationship problems with her new husband, 'Brady Bunch' star Christopher Knight. More information will be reported once it is released.

Incorrect Heather. It was actually new "news' at the time. This is because she wrote about it on her blog around February 5th. So, you need to read the whole article before it is stated as such.

I heard about this a while back. If you have ever watched the show Revlon and the other advertisers do get a lot of exposure. Yes, the show made them semi-famous, but they did go enter into the show with the understanding that the winner would recieve x. The only other reality show I have watched is survivor, its 1st year...imagine if they had not paid out to the Winner! Or if the next American Idol did not get their contract. I can see why she feels used. She played their game and they kept their prize and won't even give her an answer.

It is garbage that they do that too. The shows are what made them semi famous in the first place.

It seems like many stars of reality shows blast them when the show is over.
